I have a sitemap video file xml with duplicated nodes :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9" xmlns:video="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap-video/1.1">

I have written a perl script to remove this duplicated data:
use strict;
use warnings;
use XML::LibXML;
my $file = 'sitemap.xml';
my $doc = XML::LibXML->load_xml( location => $file );
my %seen;
foreach my $uni ( $doc->findnodes('//url') ) { # 'university' nodes only
my $name = $uni->find('video:title');
print "'$name' duplicated\n",
$uni->unbindNode() if $seen{$name}++; # Remove if seen before
}
$doc->toFile('clarified.xml'); # Print to file
Unfortunately, the file "clarified.xml" is the same as sitemap.xml.
I don't know what is wrong with my script.
I have it working, here's the code & I tried the solution provided in https://stackoverflow.com/a/4817929/235961
use strict;
use warnings;
use XML::LibXML;
my $file = 'sitemap.xml';
my $doc = XML::LibXML->load_xml( location => $file );
my %seen;
foreach my $uni ( $doc->findnodes("//*[name() ='url']") ) { # 'university' nodes only
my $name = $uni->find('//video:title');
print "'$name' duplicated\n",
$uni->unbindNode() if $seen{$name}++; # Remove if seen before
}
$doc->toFile('clarified.xml'); # Print to file
